We need YOU at this Tuesday’s City Council meeting. We’re continuing to apply pressure about the AI data centers in Lancaster.

What are we pushing for? We’re telling City Council that they should immediately request zoning amendments before any more damage is done to our community.

We also hope to see you at this Tuesday’s City Council meeting to support Councilor Ahmed, and to let Janet know she needs to go.

She does not deserve to represent a vibrant, diverse city like Lancaster.

Lancaster deserves better. If you agree, send a letter to the Mayor and City Council asking them to put pressure on Janet to resign.

We’re calling on Janet Diaz to remove herself from city council and abandon her Mayoral campaign. She has a history of Islamophobia, and has repeatedly made racist and xenophobic remarks toward City Councilor Ahmed Ahmed.

Janet Diaz must resign. It’s that simple.
